One thing Reddit has taught me about my thoughts and habits.

I am.

But I don't fucking have to impress you. I'm not your goddamn dancing monkey.

I'm secure.

I so laugh when someone asks 'Am I the only one...'.

Indeed. We are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of this world. And we seem to sing the same song over and over until no one can stand that song any longer.

I don't know what any of you guys are talking about, nor would I divulge that information if I possesed it.....Sir.

Or you can think of it this way: You are a unique snowflake, but how often do people stop to look at a single snowflake? Most of us are just snowflakes that are part of the mound, only in the background until we melt away...

The worst part? I accurately predicted what the caption to the image was going to be before clicking on it.

The better I get to know people, the more alone I am. Reddit is no exception.

so true! pretty much whenever i read a thread with loads of comments, the top post says my exact thought that I was sure was soooo unique and usually they've written it far better than I could have ever expressed it!

Highest upvote for a misused meme in evar!

i wish there was something i could say that would help you see the beauty, wonder, and amazing creature you are... perhaps there is.

do you see that anything you work at (body/mind/soul) gets stronger and better? have you noticed that records get continuesly broken, year after year after year after year? we are getting better, and it is the example we set for each other, the bar we set, that we keep raising and finding that we can indeed jump higher than we ever dreamed possible...

For years, the 4-minute mile was considered not merely unreachable but, according to physiologists of the time, dangerous to the health of any athlete who attempted to reach it.

For Roger Bannister, it was vindication.

When he crossed the finish line with a time of 3 minutes, 59.4 seconds, he broke through a psychological barrier as well.

John Landy, considered one of the great milers of that era, never had gotten closer than within 1.5 seconds of the 4-minute barrier before. Within 46 days of Bannister's breakthrough, Landy surpassed the record with a 3:57.9 in Finland. source

Now I can even guess memes before I expand the picture in RES. Worst superpower ever.

That's too bad, because it has taught me the exact opposite. When you get massively downvoted it confirms it.

You realize that all of reddit has already realized we are not snowflakes.
You are years behind.
Next time you have an epiphany, realize that it is a common thought we have all already had. Good Luck not failing at life.

How I wish there were more people like you so that they'd take a break from trying so hard to be so unique and different, and become a bit less full of themselves in the process. I guess they'd be happier that way too, btw.

Perhaps but this means that the world isnt quite as shit as I thought it was.

Im glad you posed this... I tell people that all the time

Well, you are, but you've ever seen snowflakes? Each one may have a unique geometric pattern, but nobody really cares, they're pretty much the same as far as anyone else is concerned

Yep it started with Facebook pages, moved to rage comics, and now reddit, I am humbled.

When the brain fully matures at around 25 (for males), this concept is truly easier to grasp.

What I think you all are missing is the sheer ridiculous amount of ways you can be unique in the first place. Sure, you can point to DAE threads all you want that say "yes, everyone else does", but try taking a combined count of every single one of those threads and see how many different variations of yes/no/maybe/whatever there are between people.

tl;dr there are so many more ways to be unique than what you would gather from DAE threads on Reddit

Try styding psychology. Your mind will be blown.

I've always loved the irony of Brad Pitt delivering this line:

"We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars, but we won't."
